Cool find.

See lots of F-4s, a-10s, f-14s -- sorry morph -- and maybe some a4s.

Not sure about these -- the planform looks like f/a-18s, but only see a single tail. Whaddya think?

....


BTW, anybody have the location of the USAF's boneyard? I'm sure its a lot bigger than this.....

f-16's

The New Zealand Government announced on December 1st, 1998, that it will lease-buy the 28 Pakistani F-16s which have been kept in storage at the AMARC (Aircraft Maintenance and Regeneration Center) at Davis-Monthan AFB, also known as the (desert) Bone yard.

'

They sure look like F16s.

The NZ govt was going to sell the aging but modernised A4 Skyhawks and buy the 28 F16s to replace them. Instead we  scrapped our entire air combat wing... Thats right, we dont have a combat wing, at all... Just transports, Helos, and Orions. The NZ govt has ruled out purchasing the F16s. I think the A4s were sold back to a private company in the USA.

Duh. Cross the highway, dope -- THATs where the big boys are. Cools to see teh ones already being cannibalized, with pieces parts all over.

My favorite find: and A-10 in the act of being pulled back to the retirement home...



Lots of 52s, some A6s with wingfolds, and -- tho i hardly believe it -- looks llike some starfires with wingtanks. Delta darts, broncos...man! What a great way to kill time on a slow afternoon!
